  • In 1994, Angel and I had the unique opportunity to interview Lars from Rancid for my fanzine, Psycho Moto Zine. While we managed to capture the interview on video, a frustrating discovery revealed that there was no audio accompanying it. Fortunately, Angel had recorded the interview on an audio cassette and you can find that in the printed zine. The tapes were carefully stored away, and it was only recently that I stumbled upon them once more.
    With a sense of nostalgia, I converted the audio files and entrusted them to my friend, Austin Friend. He undertook the task of restoring and enhancing the audio quality, making it not only audible but truly enjoyable. However, recognizing that some parts were still challenging to decipher, I decided to add subtitles for clarity.
    I initially hesitated about sharing this remarkable find due to the admittedly low quality of the recording. However, upon reflection, I realized that it held significant historical value and could serve as a vital addition to the archives of Rancid's legacy. The footage we uncovered is a captivating blend of a live performance by Rancid at the Wetlands Preserve in New York City and our insightful interview with Lars, conducted on Houston and Avenue A, NYC.
    During the interview, Lars shares intriguing insights about the Swingin' Utters, prompting me to include a snippet of their performance from ABC no Rio in 1994. At the time I was making a documentary project for Epitaph Records, titled "Faster Than the World," centered around the band H2O.
    The journey to recover and share these tapes has been a labor of love, and I hope that this unique piece of Rancid's history will be cherished by fans and enthusiasts alike.

    This rips. Reminds me of sending $20 to someone from an ad in MRR and getting a tape with a bunch of clips of the band you like plus some extras.

      I have a habit of more is more never less. And I used to do the same thing when I mailed out my fanzine and loved it when bands would send lots of extras. The internet killed that.

    I love Rancid. I have their name tattooed on my left arm and the Operation Ivy jumpin ska guy tattooed on my right. Lars is annoying nowadays to a certain degree but the interviews here when he was young show what a sweet guy he is at his core. Rancid wouldn’t be Rancid without Tim, Matt, and Lars. They have 7 great albums and their latest album is good too. It’s criminal to overlook their influence. I love them.

    Not from NY, but notice the COST sticker on the crosswalk behind Lars in the interview. Famous New York graffiti writer. I think they might be partly responsible for the whole "street art" sticker thing.
